    As a note, using a magic item other than a spell scroll, you're using the Use a Magic Item action, not the Cast a Spell action. You can cast bizarre wishes this way without the downsides, just as you can cast a Bonus Action spell in the same turn as you use an action based magic item that casts a spell.

    • @ANDELE3025
      @ANDELE3025 2 роки тому +6

      There is no "Use a Magic Item" action RAW. However it is indeed not the "cast a spell" action (which isnt very relevant as very few things tie onto the action itself instead of the casting process). And to tie onto that, wish doesnt care how its cast, as long as you're the one casting it and you do anything other than replicate spells you suffer the stress.
      What very well can be argued is that every item that isnt a consumable or with a command word, as per RAW, does still in fact use the "Use a Object" action because you aren't activating the item, there is no on-off switch, just using its existing effect.

      @shadenox8164 2 роки тому

      Not correct actually. For example a sorcerer can use metamagic on any spell they cast even those from a magic item and the cast time from a magic item isn't reduced at all, so you still can only do a cantrip at most after using a magic item that produces a spell that turn.
      _"Some magic items allow you to cast a spell from the item. The spell is cast at the lowest possible spell level, doesn't expend any spell slots, and requires no components, unless the item's description says otherwise The spell uses its normal casting time, range and duration, and the user of the item must concentrate if the spell requires concentration._
      _A magic item, such as certain staffs, may require you to use your own spellcasting ability when you cast a spell from the item."_
      You may not be specifically "casting a spell" as an action i.e. using a spell slot, but RAW it's a distinction without a difference as all the casting rules and restrictions apply including concentration. And yes this does mean a sorcerer can use twinned spell on applicable spells to get a free additional cast without expending more charges from the object than one cast would.
      Basically if you are casting a spell from a magic item you don't really treat it all that differently to normal casting. It just doesn't deplete your spell slots. Your DM might homebrew the rules to work differently for magic items, but base rules no.

      @sohkaswifteagle2604 2 роки тому

      true that it's not the "cast a spell action". Yes you are using the "use an item" action, but that item let you cast a spell.
      So my sorcerer using his staff to cast a spell, might not be able to quicken it (since use an action is already an action and quickening do nothing about it) and subtle is useless (since the staff description do specifies that you ignore components (VSM, including costly component) but other metamagic like distant, heighten, twinned remain effective.
      This also allow thief rogue to use fast and to use an item and activate a wand or a staff and cast the spell as a bonus action
      But on the other end, you did cast a spell as a bonus action, so you can only cast a cantrip (or do a different action) for your action
      This is by RAW, obviously you are free to homebrew whatever you want...

    One pretty strong for Rogues is Mizzium Armor. Give them Mizzium Half Plate together with Evasion and that means if a Rogue succeeds a Strength, Constitution or Dexterity saving throw that they take 0 damage from whatever the effect would've done instead of half damage. On an Arcane Trickster with something like Sheild and/or Absorb Elements, that can give you a lot of protection without an attunement.

    There is only ten minutes worth of air inside of a bag of holding until a creature inside of it would to suffocate.
    Basic rules chapter 8
    "Suffocating
    A creature can hold its breath for a number of minutes equal to 1 + its Constitution modifier (minimum of 30 seconds).
    When a creature runs out of breath or is choking, it can survive for a number of rounds equal to its Constitution modifier (minimum of 1 round). At the start of its next turn, it drops to 0 hit points and is dying, and it can't regain hit points or be stabilized until it can breathe again.
    For example, a creature with a Constitution of 14 can hold its breath for 3 minutes. If it starts suffocating, it has 2 rounds to reach air before it drops to 0 hit points."

      This gives an interesting idea. Assume I have +1 con so can hold breath for 1 minute. So I go into the bag. Hold my breath as they close it. After a minute I take a breath, and then hold my brwath again. For ease assume the one breath takes up 6 seconds like a turn before I can start to hold my breath again. Does this allow me to extend how long I can breathe in the bag since I will only be using some of the air every minute?

      It would only dislocate your shoulder if you were lucky enough to have it reachable within a few seconds.
      Using it "as a parachute" indicates it's stowed away, so you're having to reach around into a bag, find it, produce it, get a white-knuckle grip and brace yourself... By this time you've reached terminal velocity. Since it's a magically instant stop, technically it would produce even more force than hitting concrete.
      ... Your arms would rip away from your body and you'd just keep falling, no arms.

    Worth noting that with the tomes and manuals, there is still a limit as while you get what is basically a soft cap for any of your stats at 20, there is a hard cap according to RAW which is 30. That is a lot, but if you already have 20 in a stat, that's 5 tomes/manuals for the stat in question before you hit the hard cap. A +10 is pretty damn strong though.

    I'd probably say the Robe of Useful Items. No attunement needed, and you never know what situation you might need one of those items. You don't even need to wear it most of the time. Just roll it up and shove it in a pouch or bag, and pull it out and wear it when needed. Sure, it's situational, and less useful the higher your level is, but when you really need emergency potions, or a ladder, or a window that can punch through most materials, then this is fantastic utility. To be honest, if I can, i'm going to try and craft this as early as possible, even just to have in case of emergencies....

    If any of my players try this, they will have to make a Constitution saving throw DC 30, with the failure resulting in their arms torn from their body and then continuing to fall a couple of seconds later.
    On a miraculous success or Nat 20, their arms would still be ripped out of their sockets but some how not all of the flesh and muscle completely rips through, so they are instead left dangling with mutilated limbs until their grip fails from nerve damage and blood loss, or they are rescued.

    @aetherwolf9288 Рік тому

    I really don’t think that the ring of 3 wishes should be at the top. The reason being it is very limited in its use since most of the best spells you can copy (simulacrum, dream of the blue valley, plane shift, sequester, etc.) aren’t as effective at those lvl of play only starting to get relevant at higher lvl of play. In the end the ring will either be saved to revive a partymember killed by something like a souleater but then you could give the party the ring then and there. So while being a powerful item it is a nightmare for the Dm to handle and as such is more a game altering item than anything else. Also without a doubt the best use of this spell is to create a simulacrum of the wizard granting a hole bunch of problems as you have now an additional player character in the party.

    A HUGE mistake many GM do is giving out Bag of Holdings like it's nothing, a single one of these is waaaaay better than a +3 weapon.

    • @clay5083
      @clay5083 2 роки тому +1

      But a BoH is uncommon, where as a +3 weapon is very rare. +3 weapons increase damage, make magical damage (bypassing resistances to non-magical damage), and with the cherry ontop of increasing the chance to hit. A BoH is just an easy way to avoid the headache of constantly having to ask "am I encumbered yet?" Yeah there's some fun that can be had with hiding stuff in it, but it's mostly harmless.

      @@clay5083 A BoH is always the better choice between these two, though a more simple minded character would probably still pick the weapon.
      The BoH is easily the strongest item in comparison to its rarity.

      @@tripple-a6031 but it really isn't though. A BoH is a good utility item that wouldn't get much use if it were a rare item or above, but +3 to hit is entering the tettitory of having a permanent advantage on attack (+5 statistically). Would you rather have an item that lets you carry 500 lbs for free, or something that lets you damage nearly every single monster and gives you (close to) advantage on every attack?

      @@clay5083 How is that even a question? The BoH in every case unless I play a more aggressive kind of fighter or barbarian.
      To have everything on hand, at every time is so incredibly powerful, what is there even to explain?
      From simple stuff like torches, ropes, oil, food/water and the like to a first aid kit, caltrops, potions, smoke bombs, holy water or even a ladder and also the ability to carry almost every piece of loot, even if it's something like 24 swords. And there are tons of different more uncommon uses for a BoH that I may never think of until that time comes during play.
